Frequently asked questions

Are these pickups tonally different?

No. Both have identical 11.7 kΩ DC resistance, 4.6 kHz resonant peak, 6/5/7 EQ voicing (Bass/Mids/Treble), ceramic magnet, and moderate output. The only difference is the color of the bobbins—Parchment versus White.

Which one works better for blues and rock?

Both are rated equally for blues, rock, and studio use. They deliver articulate highs, balanced midrange, and controlled low end suitable for these genres without heavy distortion demands.

Do either avoid feedback better than the other?

Both are wax-potted and squeal-free. There is no feedback advantage to either model.

Will one integrate better into my Strat's existing wiring?

Both include four-conductor shielded cables with identical impedance and resistance, so neither requires modification to standard Strat electronics and both offer equal coil-split flexibility.
